Drawing a model jet engine in Fusion 360 - part 1 of 3

- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2024
- I found some 20+ years old books containing drawings of how to build a working micro gas turbine engine for use in model aircraft, and I just could not resist drawing it in Fusion 360! Not with a clear purpose what to do with the drawing, just a fun project! Maybe it can be used as a nice 3D-print for someone who wants to be able to show the parts of a model jet engine, but filming the drawing process and sharing it made purpose enough for me! Building one of these is an old dream that I might make real some day! It's not rocket science, just requires time, a set of really good metal working tools and patiens... The metal tools, like a precision lathe and mill is usually the biggest boundary. This is not meant to be a detailed instruction video, so I'm using a couple of hotkeys. But they are not hard to learn and pretty basic:
F = Fillet (rounding of edges)
L = Line (in sketch mode)
C = Circle (in sketch mode)
R = Rectangle (in sketch mode)
E = Extrude (make a new solid piece from sketch geometry or surface)
The method is to combine traditional sketch-based methods with the very powerful sculpting feature. I haven't edited out mistakes, so you'll see me trying different things until I get it right, which really is the best way of learning!

Could you please mention what books? I would love to build one with your videos and some theory, thank you so much!
Hi! This is one of them: www.amazon.com/Model-Jet-Engines-Modellers-World/dp/0951058991 this is the other one: www.amazon.com/Gas-Turbine-Engines-Model-Aircraft/dp/0951058916 I did not include the links because I figured there are much newer better books if someone really wants to build a working model jet enginge.
Depronized Thank you for your videos. I could not find the other books except this book....
Can you please show us how the ball bearing was modeled?
绿 Hi! The ball bearings were not modeled by me, I downloaded them. I don’t remember exactly from where but there are plenty on sites like Grabcad and Solidcomponents
Depronized Can you recommend some books/references strictly related to jet engine designs or even gas turbines?
绿 These books are so old so I think there might be better newer ones. I would ask in the turbine forum at rcgroups. There are probably people there who has done such a build and can recommend drawings or books.
Hi, this is the first time i've seen someone model a mini jet engine, i've been looking for exact dimensions but no luck other than this, tell me have you tried to create this in real life?
Louie Jay Jayme No, as I don’t have a workshop and the necessary tools, I haven’t tried allthough I would love to try it out at some point in the future.
@@drdistorzion wow thats good right now im trying to build a cnc machine hopefully this build will work. Thanks so much keep doing this great vids l
Btw I had a lot of problem doing the impeller though l
Louie Jay Jayme I understand, yes as mentioned, this was a CAD-project for fun and not specifically intended för printing, as it would have taken lots of extra time to adapt it for print. I have not tried to print it myself.
@@drdistorzion ah no im not going to print it but ill try to mill this one, maybe with some aluminum or stainless steel anyway can you share your fusion file for me?
Can you mail me all the files of it to me bro
me too
